Bolero, Scissors and Paste 5:51 [8] III. Recitativo Surreale 2:56 [4] IV. Minimal Security 5:05 TOTAL 51:34 COMMENT By Michael Gandolfi Fantasia for Alto Saxophone and Orchestra was written for Kenneth Radnofsky and is dedicated to him, Gil Rose, and the Boston Modern Orchestra Project. It was funded by a grant from the Fromm Music Foundation. In September of 2006 I began composing ideas that I thought would constitute the six (or more) brief movements of a twelve-minute piece. However, as I began composing in earnest in late October, I realized that I would settle on four of the ideas and, with the exception of the third movement, develop more lengthy movements, resulting in a twenty-minute work.
